Well, I am not so sure it is just one message.

Below is part of a pmr, and below that is IBM's response, (which concerns 
me).

Got the same messages. 
I noticed that when I did a STRTCPSVR *SMTP I got: 
Job 032136/QTCP/QTSMTPSRVD submitted to job queue QSYSNOMAX in library Q
SYS. 
Therefore I did a 
wrkJob 032136/QTCP/QTSMTPSRVD 
This doesn't look cool: 
Message ID . . . . . . :   MCH0601       Severity . . . . . . . :   40 
 
Message type . . . . . :   Escape 
 
Date sent  . . . . . . :   01/31/03      Time sent  . . . . . . :   09:5
3:27 
 
 
Message . . . . :   Space offset X'00000000' or teraspace offset 
 
  X'0000000000000000' is outside current limit for object &1. 


ACTION TAKEN: From the symptoms that you are receiving it appears that 
              there could be a bad e-mail in the QMSF job. 
              You are correct, the msgMCH0601 isn't cool. It normally 
              indicates that you may have been used as an open relay 
              by spammers. Therefore, your SMTP server jobs have many, 
              many undeliverable e-mails. The msgmch0601 indicates that 
              we are processing over a million mail objects and the 
              SMTP server is in recovery trying to match FSO's and 
              MCB's. We have seen this with Spam attacks and also with 
              a recovery after a system failure.

I believe that one of these settings only trashes -1- piece of 
email-- hopefully, the one that MSF/SMTP is choking on.

I forget what  the details are.  ):
